NCT05561322 · Status: WITHDRAWN · Type: OBSERVATIONAL

Last updated 2024-02-28

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The main objective of the study is to compare the onset of adjacent segment disk degeneration in two groups of patients (one "spinal fusion group" and one "lumbar arthroplasty with disc replacement" group) with each patient acting as their own control for either group under study and more than three years of follow-up.

Conditions

  • Spine Surgery

Interventions

OTHER

Consultation involving pain evaluation, questionnaires and the Lasègue Manoeuver

Raising the lower limb with the knee in extension reproduces sciatica pain if there is an impression of discal pain with its origin at the roots of the sciatica nerve L5 and S1. This test is evaluated by the degree of elevation of the lower limb relative to the examination table. During the Lasègue manoeuvre the sciatica pain is improved during dorsal flexion of the foot.The doctor notes whether the Lasègue manoeuvre done on the healthy side exacerbates the pain on the opposite side. It is said that contralateral Lasègue sign is positive.

OTHER

Magnetic Resonance Imaging of the lumbar spine

Sagittal proton density-weighted Dixon sequence on the lumbar spine and axial T2-weighted spin echo sequence on the lumbar discs.
